Description

Michael Pigott Auctioneer & Valuer proudly offers for sale this charming extended cottage occupying a generous and particularly attractive level site of approximately 0.3 acre, ideally positioned on the outskirts of the popular village of Ballinhassig.

The property offers an appealing combination of an existing comfortable home, extensive outside space and significant potential for further extension and enhancement. The generous site provides considerable room around the existing dwelling and offers scope for the new owners to further enlarge, modernise and adapt the property, subject to the necessary planning permissions.

Internally, the property benefits from a spacious and welcoming open-plan kitchen/dining/living area, which provides an excellent everyday living and entertaining space. The generous proportions allow the kitchen, dining and living areas to work particularly well as one large, sociable space and provide a natural focal point to the home. There is two bedrooms (1 en-suite) & bathroom together with a large utility room providing excellent additional storage and practical space. The existing layout offers considerable flexibility for future adaptation, depending on the requirements of the purchaser.

Outside, the generous grounds provide an unusual degree of space for a property in such a convenient location, with ample room for gardens, outdoor living, parking and potential future expansion of the house. The level nature of the site also lends itself well to further landscaping and enhancement.

Excellent Village Location

The location is undoubtedly one of the property's strongest attributes. Positioned on the outskirts of Ballinhassig village, it combines a pleasant setting with exceptional convenience and easy access to the village's everyday amenities.

The property is within easy reach of the local Gala shop, providing convenient access to day-to-day groceries and essentials, while The Sportsman Inn Bar and The Kabin Café are also nearby, adding to the village's strong sense of community and local amenities.

For families, the location is particularly appealing, with the Ballinhassig GAA grounds that contains the active Marian Hall and local community playgrounds situated directly across the road. Having these recreational facilities within such close proximity provides excellent opportunities for outdoor activity and community participation.

Ballinhassig itself is a well-established and popular village, offering a convenient range of local services and amenities, while its position on the western side of Cork City provides excellent connectivity to the wider South Cork area.

Excellent Accessibility

The property is exceptionally well positioned for those commuting to Cork City and surrounding employment centres. Cork Airport is less than 10 minutes' drive, while Bishopstown is under 10 minutes and Cork City approximately 15 minutes by car. The popular harbour town of Kinsale is also approximately 15 minutes away, providing access to its renowned restaurants, cafés, shops, marina and extensive leisure amenities.

The property's location therefore provides an attractive balance between village living and accessibility, with the convenience of local amenities on the doorstep while remaining within easy reach of Cork City, Cork Airport and some of the most popular towns and destinations in the region.
